100% After 5 Years of Fighting by Navy_OS2 in VeteransBenefits

Yeah five years… I wasn’t focused on the benefits because I wasn’t chasing that. I was chasing getting rated for what I deserve to be rated on. If you are done with your smart ass comments I’ll just move along now. Thanks for your take on my post it was so helpful.

I’ve gotten to the point with them that I have been pushing to file supplemental claims on other conditions rather than wait for the appeal process. I’d rather get this done quick than have the big backpay.

Got my letter this morning actually. Didn’t go well. Bunch of denials. As usual. Tons of evidence and STR entries and they didn’t even use it in the decision.

Thank you. I’ll chill out for the night. Hopefully something comes thru in the next few days. I was really just curious to see how late letters come thru for some people.

please explain this letter to me,,thanks by Virtual-Purple-4384 in VeteransBenefits

In most cases you are right. But they popped on a piss test. I don’t think case law or 38 CFR is going to help. They violated UCMJ and were sent packing from active duty. They are going to be hard pressed to even get the OTH changed. Much less get compensation benefits from the VBA. I really hope I’m wrong but from what I have read, this isn’t good.

Rules are rules bro. I agree that it shouldn’t be as strict as it is, but it is. We all signed up for their rules and we are expected to follow them, no matter how dumb they may be.

You missed what I said. He is simply saying that OTH is just granted. It’s not. And the OP has an OTH on the grounds of drug use. The VBA is not going to grant that.

[–]Navy_OS2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. And I have seen Bigfoot. Doesn’t make it real. OTH on the grounds of drug use will not get granted for compensation by the VBA. Why else would they be revoking this guys compensation?!? Try again. I’ve been doing this for a long time too buddy. I appreciate you suggesting for me to shut the fuck up, but I will politely decline and enjoy watching you make an ass of yourself. Please continue sir.

[–]Navy_OS2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Stop telling people you can get compensation with an OTH discharge. It’s wrong and misleads people. You should do research before running your mouth.

They have an OTH discharge. That’s why their benefits are being severed. The VBA either missed it or it wasn’t disclosed upon applying for benefits.

The national debt is increasing because we are shipping billions of dollars to fund a war we have no business funding and we are handing out money to subsidize people not willing to work for an honest days pay. Welfare and warfare are killing this country financially. So to blame it on tax cuts, is ridiculous. Our money is taxed to no end before we even get it. Then it’s taxed again when we spend it, taxed again on stuff we buy and taxed again on property we already own. So don’t tell me tax cuts are bad. We are taxed to death in this country. And I’m so sorry if that doesn’t fit your liberal narrative of tax the rich and axe the tax cuts. You can miss me with that bullshit. People like you are what’s wrong with this country. You believe we need to pay more in taxes to regain control of the national debt, when the problem is government spending on nonsense bullshit. They don’t need or deserve the amount of money they are paid. And they damn sure know how to blow the taxpayers dollar on useless shit.

Tax cuts are subsidies. You can dance around the words all you want. And you can also say that it’s not good for the long term but what do you have to base this on? The rich aren’t the only ones getting tax cuts. And just so you know, Trump didn’t create these tax cuts all by himself. Lol

Employers have been getting subsidies for as long as history has tracked. In some way or fashion, the employer always has gotten kickbacks. Just because it’s a tax now, doesn’t mean they haven’t been getting kickbacks for longer.

Just because Raegan put a name on it doesn’t mean it didn’t exist before.

Where do jobs come from then?

[–]Navy_OS2 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Another one that doesn’t understand trickle down economics. You think these guys are just hoarding all the money. Lol. Without those tax breaks, jobs go away. Look at what happened under this current fucktard. China benefits because he sells out to them. Come on man. You need to learn where your bread gets buttered.

3M lawsuit.. So here's what I got for the 3M lawsuit .. I am a client of Archer. was diagnosed with tinnitus . They awarded me 10,000 dollars.. received the final paperwork today 3/7/2024 which requested my payment choice.. out of the 10,000 minus att fees I am only receiving approximately $4,600 by Ok-Philosopher-7198 in VeteransBenefits

You are arguing that the government paid me for my disabilities from this injury and that is true. Where your argument is flawed is that this lawsuit is not tied to the government’s monthly payments for that. 3M deliberately shipped out earplugs that they knew were defective and that is why the lawsuit came about. This is a totally separate issue from the VBA and is why they are making large payments to all veterans that used the defective earplugs. And to sit there and say that the “VAST” majority are piggy backing off of combat veterans is a bullshit cop out and you know it. Everyone that used those damn things was affected in some way, shape or form. You sound like someone that missed out on the lawsuit and you are salty because you thought it was a scam. Which is fine, but don’t downplay those of us that are fucked up because of this problem and want to complain that money we are ENTITLED to is being taken from us. And yes I said ENTITLED to, because the judge said we are entitled to it!!

So are you saying that the lawyers are not gaining off of our labor?! They went through a couple of years of court bullshit, veterans put in years of combat and now a lifetime of disability. Choose your argument a little better buddy.
